Is it me, or are self-deprecating jokes becoming a tired social lubricant? If you need to so profusely and so often assure me you're comfortable laughing at yourself, I can't help wondering if you aren't really a vigilantly self-correcting egomaniac.

- Rethink joining Twitter. You're not that interesting, and certainly not as often as you think.

- While you're doing your morning push ups, consider going on a run, or a bike ride, or maybe swimming, so people don't notice your nice pecs only in contrast to your squishy mid-section and chicken legs.

- Also, skip the sit-ups. They are pretty much useless.

- If you are a regular at more than one bar, give some thought to whether you are the funny, drunk guy you think everyone else is tired of.

- Often, pretty unaccompanied woman do not want you to talk to them because you come off as kind of self-important and a little creepy; and even if they seem to be interested, they are probably just being polite.

- Don't use fonts as metaphors for women unless you are a typographer.

- Instead of starting the wine collection, maybe put lots of money into a 529 plan. Because you know what gift is possibly even cooler than a ton of wine? College.

- I'm sure your "collaborator" is a great guy and a real man's man, but I have a hard time taking advice from this dude:

I don't have a clear mental picture of him, but the fuzzy one doesn't involve a mint-green car, with mint-leather seats, and a matching oxford shirt.

Well, except that was 25 years ago and he hasn't aged as well as James Spader.

Whoa. I thought that was Meg Ryan.

I picture him as Michael Landon wearing board shorts and flip flops.

He is the next Christopher Walken. Only maybe better than Walken.

My God, man. I'd never insult you like that. Guy looks like a hungover beaver doing an ironic ad for Chrysler LeBaron convertibles.
